                ParentNode.Text = S.Substring(55);

                treeView1.Nodes.Add(ParentNode);



                /*          Making child node           */



                FTPLIB.ChangeDir("//" + S.Substring(55) + "/");

                foreach (string S2 in FTPLIB.List())

                {

                    FTPLIB.ChangeDir("//" + S.Substring(55) + "/");



                    TreeNode ChildNode = new TreeNode();

                    ChildNode.Text = S2.Substring(55);

                    ParentNode.Nodes.Add(ChildNode);



                    FTPLIB.ChangeDir(".");

                }



            }

        }

    }

}

Happy coding people , code is shibby ....

Re: FTP Server Directory Treeview
 

lets pray the ftp servers you use always return exactly the same format in each line then, and that they dont have longer filenames, or usernames or longer/shorter permissions.

However, builing a tree view of something is generally an easy enough concept, and your treeview only allows 1 level, its not recursive.. but, its good you got there in the end.

Btw, shouldnt

FTPLIB.ChangeDir(".");

be a little pointless as you are changing to a fully qualified path each time. and "." means dont change.

Takes you to the root folder again, this is just an example , i mean surely every person has a brain to take this code and play around with it ... i just wanted to help man ... seriously....

Its the theory you see there, i just gave an example , one can use this in small applications ... (i hate the treeview though, might do it with a listview....) but we already played with that hehehe

Thanks for all your help man , I'm finally finding some structure in my application to work with ...

Re: FTP Server Directory Treeview
 

I guess you could just use

FTPLIB.ChangeDir("//");

or something, on my server the previous folder is the "."-dir so going there takes you back back back ... cool navigation i tell you ...

Re: FTP Server Directory Treeview
 

Thats very unusual. On every other OS in the world, "." is current folder, including windows and unix.

I am using print directory on My Computer or Windows Explorer, To print information about all your files. Print Directory can print the name of every file on a drive, along with the file's size, date and time of last modification, and attributes (Read-Only, Hidden, System and Archive)! And now, the list of files can be sorted by name, size, date.
